discussing, exalting, and complaining about the weather is not small talk. it embodies and grounds us. it helps us to acknowledge that we are earthly creatures at the mercy of infinite cycles of powerful forces. we talk about the snow and the rain and we are rooted anew.

Talking about the weather is not small talk anymore. It’s breaking news every day. And it’s the most critical conversation for our future and the future of our children.
This #WorldMetDay our call is simple: the time for meaningful #ClimateAction is now.

Talking about the weather is not small talk. If I bring up the heat wave or the storm we just had, and you can’t volley that back to me, we have different priorities.

In Canada, ‘how’s the weather?’ is not small talk. It’s a survival strategy.

“The weather” is not small talk. Weather is vast, beautiful, and mysterious. We are never really ready to talk about the clouds
